Ontario, California — IAPMO R&T Registration Services, the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB)-accredited organization focused on management system certifications and part of The IAPMO Group, has changed its name to SCB (Systems Certification Body).
“This transition to SCB represents a turning point for our organization,” SCB Senior Vice President Shirley Dewi said. “We will never lose our proud legacy of IAPMO and the nearly 100 years of business excellence. Strategically, this change allows us to better service our customers as we move into new and emerging markets.”
The rebrand signifies the next phase of the organization’s growth as a third-party management system certification body and ties together the Supply Chain Services group that previously functioned as its own entity.
“Combining our Management System Certification and Supply Chain Services divisions under the SCB umbrella allows our customers to use one provider for their internal and external supplier quality requirements,” Dewi said. “This change really captures the global breadth of our network and gives our customers one point of contact for all services.”
SCB is committed to meeting clients’ needs and helping them stay out in front of a complex and always-changing environment. Its customer base serves industries such as aerospace and defense, information technology, medical, automotive, engineering and manufacturing, and service providers/government contractors.
As part of its new branding, SCB has launched an updated website (www.iapmoscb.org) featuring an improved user experience with tools and information that will assist in matching its offerings with clients’ needs.
